Decades of your (my?) life...

A thought crossed into my mind as i drove home from dinner today. And here it is, in its unabridged form.

From 0 to 10 years old, it's the time for you to play.
From 11 to 20 years old, it's the time for you to learn.
From 21 to 30 years old, it's the time for you to make mistakes (and still learn from them).
From 31 to 40 years old, it's the time for you to drive your life forward and make the push to the top.
From 41 to 50 years old, it's the time for you to start coasting a little and enjoy little luxuries in life.
From 51 to 60 years old, it's the time for you to enjoy the respect you gain from being at the pinnacle of your life.
From 61 to 70 years old, it's the time for you to take things easy, and ease yourself gracefully into retirement.
From 71 to whatever age you live up to, it's the time for you to enjoy retired life and pass on sage advise about life to younger cikus.

Not very eloquent perhaps, but it's an honest thought. What do you think?
